Captain Gravity, #s 1-4
Synopsis: A movie crew encounters evil Nazis in the jungles, and a young
man rises to the challenge. |
| Review: This Nazi-fighting young man has a pulp-era-hero 'look'
to him, but the character himself has more of a modern flavor. I loved the
artwork, but thought that the story was not terribly original. The only
real resemblance to Doc is in the pants the guy wears. |

Tom Strong, #1
Synopsis: Issue 1 is the story of the origins of a new hero, Tom Strong.
Scientist father and mother stranded on an island, bring up their baby boy
in an unusual way. |
| Review: This fellow contains elements of several pulp era
heroes, including Tarzan. I can see some similarities to Doc here, as do
some other fans. I liked the artwork better than the story, which I thought
was so-so and could have used more drama. |
